Shovels & Rope – BWYR lyrics
[Chorus]
Black lives
White lives
Yellow lives
Red

Let's all come together and share the bread
Let's all join hands and share the dread

[Chorus]
Black lives
White lives
Yellow lives
Red

Too many dying
Too many dead

[Chorus]
Black lives
White lives
Yellow lives
Red

Let's all come together and bow our heads
Talkers talk but nothing gets said
Nothing gets done and the hate, it spreads
All mothers and families hang their heads
And children weeping in their beds
Blood was bled and tears were shed
While that sorry rag flies overhead
That blocks the light but not the lead
That blinds the proud with pride instead
While the poor go hungry and the fat get fed


[Chorus]
Black lives
White lives
Yellow lives
Red

Everybody's scared you can see it or not
Looking to see what the other one's got
Walking down the street to your usual spot
Everybody trying to not get shot

If Black lives
White lives
Yellow lives
Red
Can all come together and share the bread
We could all join hands and share the dread

[Chorus]
Black lives
White lives
Yellow lives
Red
